Hermes Kelly Bag

Does anyone know what the price range is? Or have pics with the prices on them. I know they only sell them in stores and are not on their website. I saw a really nice one in Barcelona and I knew I should have gotten it then. That was about 6 months ago and I am pretty sure it won't be available in stores now. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You speak my language!

I can't upload pics (image upload has disappeared!?

) but the price range of a Kelly bag depends on its material, its colour and its age.... usually prices range from around $7000 and can go all the way up to $30000.

Also, be aware that when buying Hermes bag, waiting lists for these handbags usually close quite quickly, and only a selected few are lucky enough to receive theirs. Hermes bags are entirely handmade from start to finish by one master craftsman, and out of the finest materials that can be found. Therefore these bags are very exclusive.... so please ladies, don't be tempted to buy a fake, it's just not worth it.

I know my SIL has gotten some great vintage Kelly bags from this famously huge market they have in Paris... don't know if you're in the area for that??

^yes i know all that except the prices. i am looking into leather, tricolor, not exotics. For leather, I think the range starts lower. but yeh, im not in Paris and neither am i looking for vintage.

I depends whether you're wanting the leather skin or exotic skin. Leather Hermes start at about $8,000 and the crocodile skin is obviously a bit dearer.

This Hermes Vintage Crocodile Kelly Bag retails at roughly $15,000.

Birkins are less expensive, they start at about $5000 and go upto $52,000.
